- Synopsis:
Ilyas (Kadir Inanir) is a truck driver from Istanbul who comes to a remote village to work in the construction of a dam. When his truck gets stuck in the muddy dirt road, he comes across Asya (Türkan Soray), a woman from the village who he nicknames Al Yazmalim ('red scarf'). They fall in love, get married and have a child called Samet. One day Ilyas stops to help some stranded bystanders, but in doing so, he is delayed and ends up getting fired. When Asya goes to his boss and pleads for Ilyas to be reinstated, Ilyas is enraged and hits her, then leaves her to start an affair with his former casual girlfriend Dilek (Hülya Tuglu). When Ilyas realises his mistake, he goes back only to find that Asya and his child have left the house. Asya and Samet are wandering by the road when they hitchhike on the back of a truck with a kind stranger Cemsit (Ahmet Mekin). After Cemsit realises that Asya has nowhere to go, he takes pity on them and offers them food and shelter while Ilyas searches desperately for them. Samet becomes increasingly fond of Cemsit and Asya begins to see that Samet thinks of him as a father. Then one day after many years, Ilyas suddenly appears and Asya is left to make a choice between him and Cemsit. - Actors:
